Tips and Techniques
In subsequent pages, I will describe my art and vision (some lifestyle strategies) for young artists, collectors---or anyone who has an eye for art and entertainment. The idea is to communicate in simple words what I was thinking consciously and unconsciously as I worked on each painting.
In my humble opinion, most of the techniques are universal, so that they may be applied to any media---be it traditional oil painting, watercolors, pastel, acrylics, gouache, pen and ink, mixed media etc.
The principles are useful in digital painting as well if you have a paint program and a tablet. Just paint with your stylus pen to create paintings, graphics, illustrations and color separations---for serigraphy or printmaking, mixed media and giclees.
So join me in a cruise to view samples of my artwork and the techniques that I employed to execute them. The other tips are there for you---as an option---to enrich your life, your dreams and personal insight through travel and research.
I designed these displays to present these tips and guidelines---and to make your treasure hunt fun and easy! Hush! There's some secret treasure buried somewhere in these islands. Eavesdrop here at the bar and other SpyGlass cafes! ; )
